<p>lash is deleted from this release. hush can be configured down to almost
|
||||||
|
the same size, but it is significantly less buggy. It even works
|
||||||
|
on NOMMU machines (interactive mode and backticks are not working on NOMMU,
|
||||||
|
though). "lash" applet is still available, but it runs hush.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p>init has some changes in this release, please report if it causes
|
||||||
|
problems for you.
